NYX MEGA SHINE LIP GLOSS IN : BEIGE

Hey everyone,
I am back with another review. This time its for a NYX product. We all love NYX. The product I am reviewing today is their very popular mega shine lip gloss and I shall be reviewing it in the color BEIGE. Okay so here is the confusing part I for the life of me can not understand why is this lip gloss named BEIGE, because its totally 100% not beige...its a warm medium pink.



So lets see what NYX has to say about its MEGA SHINE LIP GLOSS:
Kiss me quick! Our signature Mega Shine Lip Gloss delivers shine, moisture and softness and envelops lips with glistening color. The finish is both creamy and steamy and ensures knockout glamour. A blend of mineral and lanolin oils helps protect the pout. Available in 50 almost sinful lip gloss shades.

We hear you, 50 shades.....that is most certainly sinful on their part. How much are we supposed to buy and ultimately hoard?
Okay lets get started.
PACKAGING: These lip glosses are packaged in a clear tube with a black cap/lid. It comes with a doe foot applicator which is nice, I am not a big fan of brush tip applicators. The clear tube helps in identifying the shade among your makeup pile( just kidding), but yes indeed it helps being in a transparent shade.

APPLICATION: This shade is very pigmented one swipe and you are good to go. That said I like to apply it over a nude lipstick or sometimes just even on the center of the lips to add a little more pout to the lips.


COLOR AND TEXTURE: This shade is nice warm medium pink.It glides on very smoothly and it doesnt feel very heavy on the lips .These lip glosses are not sticky .  Its a fairly long lasting lip gloss, you will have to reapply it after 4- 5 hours or so. They have the perfect amount of shine and the colors...you can actually see them on your lips they are opaque. They are moisturizing on the lips.

PRICE: They go for around $5 in the USA, and I hate to say this but they are way pricier in INDIA. They are priced at around INR 475-500. I mean come on....You cant help it. It is what it is.
one swipe

OVERALL VERDICT: I would definitely repurchase this particular shade  Its not sticky and heavy feeling which is a major plus for me. Pricing wise of course its better to buy it from USA .. You should check it out, its worth the money spent. This is already my second tube of this particular shade. The color selection on the entire range is AWESOME.  The texture is really smooth and applies smoothly on the lips. And best of all the color is actually opaque and you get what you see which is a major plus for a lip gloss.  ALL IN ALL GIVE IT A TRY YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.
So that will be all on this post.  Hope to write soon. I try and try to blog regularly but its just not happening. AAAHHHH....Will  try harder, meanwhile if any of you have post or makeup look in mind  you want me to blog about please feel free to comment below
Until next time...

L'OREAL PARIS GLAM SHINE 6HR LIP GLOSS IN FIERY 305

Hello hello,
Okay so I am on a roll, I would sincerely like to blog often .I am going to be posting more reviews on lip glosses.. its summer time girls! Okay I like to apply lip glosses through out the year but especially during the summers and also because this last winter I kind of have been hooked on to my matte
lipsticks so I am making a deliberate effort on my part to use more of my lip glosses and what better time than summers to pucker up those lips and slap on some lip gloss.
ENOUGH ALREADY! I should better start the review.

L'oreal Glam shine lip glosses have been around long and what made me write this blog is the fact that I have repurchased it and intend  to do so in the future. These are a little sticky not too much nothing that would trouble me and it is so because of the long wear formula. It comes in a clear tube with a doe foot applicator, now I quiet like the shape of its applicator ,it makes it easier to follow the shape of your lips using this. It doesnt last up to 6 hours, but we all know no lip gloss does.

They are priced at INR 799/- ,little pricier compared to the NYX lip glosses .


This particular shade is a perfect companion to a party or a wedding. Its shimmery so I use it for night time events. It has gold shimmers mixed with the brown so under lights it reflects gold which is very pretty .These arent the best their are but I like them, they are better than a lot of others and I quiet enjoy this particular shade. Its a sheer gloss so I make it a point to always apply it underneath a lipstick and I used it over red, brown, nude all sorts of lipsticks, its a great lip gloss. What I like most is its very versatile.
